    Employee of the Luxor finds a backpack on top of his car. He starts to move it and it explodes.

    My fiancee and I are staying at the Luxor in June for our pseudo honeymoon.
    Note to self: Don't touch any backpacks.

    I'm shocked nobody has said this proves it was business as usual in Vegas during the NBA ASG weekend.

    What are you talking about, Wretchy? This was a pipe bomb, not a drive-by.

    They just said it apparently wasn't a backpack after all, but some other strange type of device.
